Wait, you're saying there's a better Rolex channel on YouTube than Archibald Chesterfield III?

I really like this channel and recommend it to anyone looking for insight on how grey's buy and sell Rolexes. It's like a reality show, really a well done concept for YouTube where all other watch channels are opinion pieces or macro studies.

right there and right in the intake box really yeah that's what we don't want right up in there you're gonna have to push it yeah it doesn't have to push the car this is the worst thing that could happen uh we don't know i think something came crashing through the to the engine bay we don't know if somebody vandalized it or what oh just true new means it's like brand new unworn yeah it's never been you know sized it's never been worn out around it's it's just been on display that's it let me get to my office here in about 30 minutes and i'll call you 14k what are you hoping to get out of this chain because i don't really i won't stand i really like to get two grand out of it two uh do you know what it weighs at by chance wait i think it's 43 grams 43 grams what's gold at right now i have no idea that's literally but since you're selling in your store like that wasn't a pawn shop i'm just trying to figure out what at least the starting point is you know 33.84 and how many grams did you say it was 42 43 i believe it's 1 500 bucks in gold it scraps around 1500 14.55 exactly but so yeah we try to sell it for like 2 300 bucks what do you want for all these links all of them are new style except for one and then there's a like well the jubilee links are old style i usually pay 50 bucks a piece for those so there's 150 right there what do you want for the anchor what do you think you can give me like 50 bucks or something yeah i call it 50. you got two new style link jubilee i pay 75 each for those and then we got one two three four five six oyster links i paid 50 for those and then what about i guess i'll pay 75 for this brand new link for everything uh parts related it's like 7 25. awesome and then uh did we clear up our we cleared up our debt right yeah perfect okay all right i'll let you know what i can do thanks okay we're after a rolex chulini which i really like i know it's not hot and it's not sexy but i like it the second one is the longer um the 192032 i know it's trading new at like 32 35 34 or something like that but i wanted less than that of pre-owned so what kind of rolex delaney by the way because there's a ton of different ones can you text me a picture all right so let me do this let me uh start putting calls out and i will let you know pre-owned perfect thank you so much this thing is cool look at that here i'm going to text mark on flex on him real quick dude this thing's bad yeah don't touch my watch well i'm wearing it i'm about to go to the gym i'm going to add one more scuff to the bezel i like the size the size of this one's more practical too the size of that 10 20 is like a 46 millimeter 27. oh yeah yeah it was too big this one this that's a 44. yeah i don't like it on this norm this bracelet i like on the regular panerai bracelet but didn't it come with an extra strap yeah yeah i did okay i'll leave it here for you and then in two months when you get bored i'll buy it hello yeah we'll see how's it going man this one's brand new right yeah the one with no stickers on it is the open card okay so there's that so you get it let me get straight so then those stickers has an open card and the stickers has a warranty yes one of the philadelphia thousand dollars less it's a thousand dollars more because it's fully stickered so so whenever these watches come out of rolex you see they have stickers along the clasp stickers along the case on the side of the case stickers i thought it was yes is that the old ways those now i mean those all have that too most of the time they don't pull those off but sometimes yeah those little stickers right there and now are those stickers worth a thousand dollars no but to some people they are because you're not supposed to rolex is not supposed to release these watches with stickers on them so it just makes it it's one of those things where they're not supposed to do it so if one slips through the cracks people will pay more for it all right so so besides that they're both they're the exact same watch they're both brand new someone's just gonna pay more of a premium for this because it's fully stickered and i can attest to that i've paid more for watches because i just you know i want to know that well i mean even for my personal watches i bought watches back when the hulk right after the hulk got discontinued i paid 20 grand per one fully stickered because i just i don't know i was going to keep it forever i wanted to pull the stickers off and know that it's my watch people will do that nice to meet you nice to meet you guys yeah so i'm going to go over to ascension and work i mean att is coming tomorrow so so why are we paying for this device that and i'm going to labor that doesn't work okay because this is the second time that it's gone down i mean they're giving me the feel that because of our setup marble walls and glass oh you didn't see the marble walls when you were here setting it up jesus my bad i like when marco likes the same watches i do because he buys them gets my approval eventually he gets bored and then i get to buy them so basically just win for you no that's my one no that's my watch both of y'all so right now i'm looking if i uh i have to focus on this in fact i need a gift for a sister and a brother they just don't know what don't know what are you thinking watches are you thinking of jewelry or whatever i think it watches watch really simplistic uh like i mean 40 millimeters too big for him too big yeah okay so what kind of budget yeah it's been so long since i've looked at you stay just all right nothing over okay but he doesn't want any 40 millimeter no right now okay these ones aren't for cell but just so you get like an idea so 36 i mean if you did a 36 millimeter with a black roman dial that'd be that'd be in the price range around 4 500. okay it never stops so what are your uh what's your opinion on the uh the tudor uh the black bays because my the brother that i'm looking for the dangerous word he was thinking about getting a black pay for a while and i i think they're a good watch for someone that wants rolex quality but doesn't want to spend rolex money yet there's a few black bays out there that are very limited and i think those are the ones i would go for if you look at what tudor is now and what rolex was 40 years ago rolex was 40 years ago what tudor is now yeah a high quality watch getting some recognization and tutors owned by rolex right right so oh yeah so there's my tudor chrono and the frank mueller and then i have the tiffany gmt i i just decided to sell the rose gold skype off i see the tiffany gft and i i drew a little bit of yeah i wouldn't think you'd find it too tiffany i mean i wasn't looking for them they just came in i just ran i've never even worn this watch i wore it like one time during one of the videos and i don't know if i'll ever wear it yeah but i appreciate it because i wanted a birth year i i always said my introduction to vintage was going to be birthier stuff so i wanted a gmt and a daytona okay the problem with the daytona is also it's 88 which is the first year they did zenith but i have my eye i do have my eye on a zenith daytona it's an r serial 1988 with the porcelain dial yeah they only made it for one year and it's already like a hundred grand do you have any info on what that like what that could maybe potentially cost to repair a perpetual calendar yeah i mean he's looking at it depends it's all going to depend on the extent of the issues yeah but i mean do you have a ballpark dude ballpark just a service perpetual calendar minimum is 1600 minimum that's like so give them a range give them a range between 15 and 3 grand like minimum 1500 so or it's 1500 starting out and then it depends on uh what's actually wrong with it i've opened this three times okay so you're going to houston okay you're on okay you'll be back tonight right okay we're gonna go mike and i are going to go over to flower child neat because we don't have internet uh if you guys get hey when you get downtime marco when you're driving when i'm driving yes oh well as he was saying be careful that's kind of kind of make me look like um comment on youtube when i'm driving i'm gonna be on youtube yes comment it bumps our posts in the algorithm yes that's okay dude realistic pricing like 80 000. tell them dealer dealers telling every dealer we talked to says wholesale number on that watch is 70 grand or no no that's retail like that's what they're selling for hey what did you say that that ap perpetual calendar is selling for uh the real money on that watch is in the 70s to sell it that's like to an end user right no that's like wholesale okay so what should we ask retail for it i mean like sell fast it'll sell fast around 80. no no okay look the guy wants to consign it to us i need to know what he wants to know what number we're going to list it at so wholesale 70. he was telling dylan he was thinking 95 000. well that's we obviously know that that's not going to happen and it's going to make it we're not going to do that because we're not going to make ourselves look like jack to fulfill someone's fantasy price i would tell him 80 grand i'd say 80 yeah 80. wholesale one let me ask him yeah what he's selling this for but tell him wholesale number on that watch is 70 for a dealer to buy it realistic retail price on it is 80 000. also just explain like i'm not going to we're not going to put our name out there to ask 95 because it makes us look like idiots and it looks it makes us look like we're price gouging on that watch which then they see that when they're gonna think everything else is like over inflated so we're not going to do that cool uh we got everything you ready all right cool we're going to go to uh flower child and get some food how much are you picking up 73. okay so 13 goes to the way he told me to count it as 60 towards the watch and 13 for that rose gold chocolate though rose gold chocolate oh okay well i mean that's what's his debt with us it's on my spreadsheet like 110 000 or something no 120 something jesus okay he owes roughly half of that now okay she'll knock out the other wet rust next week you said all right cool all right yeah wow get the 15 400 because i want to have it by thursday i'll put out a call right now i put out a call to all the whatsapp groups so hopefully by the time we're done with lunch somebody will respond oh damn 3 700 views in two hours holy dude 3 700 views in two hours 3 700 views in two hours really i've even got a chance to look i don't know in order for them to be eligible for the contest they have to share the post and comment and comment and you're able to track that somehow that they've won both well we just pick a winner and then i go look and see where they shared it show me where you shared it and we do it live we did it live the last time you think we stick to the long format yeah dude word dude you would watch i know there's been quite a few comments i don't care no you'd watch you'd spend an hour watching game of thrones right you'd spend an hour watching breaking bad what's the difference i don't care i don't care that's fine i'm not trying to rack up millions of views on a five-minute video i'm trying to create a dedicated following that's going to tune in every monday no matter how long our videos are and watch it the comments i like the most are not the ones oh i watched your video when i was walking to the restroom or was taking i want your prime time when you could be watching anything else and you're watching our video that's special so most of my stuff are ap's okay i've got a few rolexes with me um i've got a few date holders which i'm a little bit reluctant to sell right you know i've got about six platinum pieces with me six gold pieces and about 15 steel daytonas okay uh uh paul brandt's banking new sticker still on him wow i'm just a little bit on the board whether i want to sell them or not yet bring their richard bring some richard mills over an ap whatever you feel comfortable with and let's sit and talk here in a little bit and we'll definitely help you yeah dude we'll definitely make it fair and we'll definitely help you get them moved because i do have a pretty strong network you know we had a an investor come in last week and talk with us and just gave us this offer that was gonna you know it was undervalued they wanted way more control than we ever want to give up and it just it kind of turned me off on the idea what i want you don't mind me oh he wanted to give us a million dollars for half our company and then have majority rights of all the decision making i'm like no that's stupid yeah to me that's unreasonable because that's literally just 10 watches yeah what i'd like is someone to come in what i'm looking for is sort of to be in the background so i can supply be like one of your main source suppliers that would be like a perfect world scenario someone that can come in supply us with the caliber of watches you're talking about that you just sent me pictures of i mean dude looking at these watches geez ap perpetual calendar okay so buying the watches for me isn't an issue so i can even give you the cash up front you know if there's a watch and i'm happy to purchase that once you sell it you give me what i purchased it for and a little bit on top perfect mate sounds good i'll cc all right buddy bye like that's that's avi and co or vadim with rest aficionado that's their level yeah yeah that's inventory you are immediately on the map if you have that jeez dude you're gonna keep it am i gonna keep it um can't afford it but we'll figure out how yeah i'd sell a kidney for that watch i want to get back to that point where coffee actually gives me a buzz you got to stop drinking it for a week y'all better not come to work for a week then okay so i'll send you a purchase order for the three rolexes and then a memo receipt for the vacheron so okay cool anthony you think it'll sell in a month i would hope so i mean it's it's hard to say and that's why i couldn't really put a price on it because there's not there's not an actual listing for that for that watch for sale what i can do is i'm just going to tease it on instagram like today and tomorrow and see what kind of see what kind of feedback i get ideally what i would like is a dealer to make an offer on it so once a dealer makes an offer on it then i know where to price it and then of course and then of course anytime someone makes an offer on it i'll call you and text you and let you know like hey here's my offer what do you think i'll give you my recommendation based on what's happened but you'll ultimately you'll ultimately tell me yes or no if you ever get offered the open worked skeleton on a bracelet say say yes i'll buy it i don't care what you want for it wow oh my gosh wow from the buckle and it's super sick the way they did it so if you press down oh i see it under well let me see oh i see yeah it's actually extended right now oh i see okay that's cool wow i mean this is probably on par i'm gonna get shame for saying this by some people but i had a 5980 rose gold in here last week and that's my holy grail watch i'm gonna buy it for christmas this year but damn hey nice to meet you we'll take care can we make a purchase invoice i can print this off for you as well but i'll email him that three straps okay yes got it for vc okay cool i think you're good all right thanks man appreciate it you're welcome have a good one dude and we're gonna ask 41.5 okay cool that's what i need to know all right bye all right 41.5 on that yeah it's a heartbreaker that's a beautiful piece my brother's got one that's why i want one he got his in chicago oh yeah take a look at it you guys do trainings too yeah what do you want to try down i got another two presents that i haven't been wearing okay this is getting dusty i mean i wear them twice 36s or 40 40. 40s okay yeah it's like trade you got boxing papers just bring it in or shopping papers everything shoot me uh it's day 8 40 what year 004 the other one not too good condition my wife worth that a lot but i mean it's not beat up but what year is it rough just roughly so like an o4 and an 09 where do you see a day-date 40 2000 well no they have did they have a date 840 in 2009 no is it a 41 the real big one yeah the big one the 41. okay uh where do you see a 2009 day-date or day-date 2 what dial what color gold rose white yellow gold yellow gold gold dial yellow gold gold dial i'd like to be at 34 5 35 okay 34 5 depending on condition and then what was the other one it was a 2004 all right and then at 2004 double quick day-date 36 36 double quick 2004 so one line does that have heavy buckle or buckle if you know why or up i don't know we'll pay 15 for that 15 okay you'd be looking at 49.5 we'll just call it 50 even yeah there you go all right all right bye can you fly with 20s no it's all 20s hell no then forget it you won't fly there no you're not dude we're not taking 20s i'm not taking 70 000 in cash in 20s you're lucky i even sold you a watch that's hundreds except for 10. that's fine dude oh yeah marco you should have brought those with you you were at the office bro i didn't want to wait for you okay okay depending on conditions depending on condition roughly 50 grand okay so you'd get cash back if you traded both those towards this for this yep otherwise come tomorrow sure i'll be here hold that box with that box papers and everything yeah he's it just came in it literally just came in an hour ago yeah he's he's just now getting his shot to put on the website if i don't want to get rid of my car watches i just want to leave lightweight playaway i do three months but not at that price a piece that heavy you're looking at you're gonna be looking at a price of what i say 41.5 you're probably looking at 500 i need 25 down 90 days to pay mainly because and i'll tell you why i'll tell you why layaway on stuff like that at that amount is so much it's just for me to let you know i pay for that watch i buy that watch for 39 40 grand whatever it is if i stock that in my in my shelf and i let someone put it on layaway then i've got 40 grand tied up for up to three months if i'm not make if it's not worth the mark the margin is not there and doesn't make sense does it make sense for me to put it on layaway to only make say fifteen hundred dollars two thousand at all when i could take it and i could lower my price by a thousand bucks sell it the same day get that forty thousand back buy another watch make a thousand bucks buy another one and just keep doing it so the margin has to make sense we definitely always want to pick up new clients it just has to make sense yes of course of course all right man appreciate it guys glad you came in dude thanks is it just one okay i think i know what this one is but if it is we can't show it on video because it's extremely rare and the client that the client that sent this in if it where he gets it they follow me well all the 80s follow me by now yep cut it can't tell this one what up so i've listed that watch and all the groups and everything um i'm not getting action but somebody offered fifty three five i could probably count on that 53 give it till after lunch i just posted it on social media okay where'd you post it uh my personal instagram blast it on gentlemen timepieces 55 000. yeah all right what time you come to the office i'll probably be there like 30 35 minutes okay cool all right bye what did it pay for it was the guy that we were having some issues yesterday with credit card the net spin payment oh what did he spend it was like 17k a little over 17. no but can i look that up in quickbooks that still worries me though because i don't know i it's too soon to to guess but the fact that it was a prepaid card no driver's license it was an id and then we called his number afterwards yes and it was a text now subscriber number there's a chance he just needed to move funds and he needs to be yeah but who pays but and you still get the money i know but it's just one of those things where someone comes in and buys a 20 000 watch in 30 minutes didn't really didn't he didn't negotiate price did he bought it right off my the 500 credit card fees like is that negotiable no okay that was just that easy so that's just one of those things where if we don't have the payment by five then we know you know what you know what my biggest red flag was and and again it's too soon to say whether it didn't but what threw me off was even aside from all that because that there is coincidence that could have worked it's whenever he said he worked at louis vuitton and i said okay cool can you get me a couple black monogram keep alls anyone that knows anything about louis vuitton knows what a black monogram keep all is it's the most popular men's duffel bag they sell and then when marco pulled his out and was saying i have the zip up one right here i want the one with the flap over it his response was like oh yeah that'd be cool it just wasn't a response that says i work there yes that is our if i worked there i'd be like yes that one is insanely popular it's hard to get and i would know what keep all means i don't know it's too soon to to say you will know in two days whenever we do or don't have money mike on quickbooks yes i want to see if that payment cleared you're on a recorded line how can we help you get recorded that's going on that's going on youtube so you know i don't know who i am what did you just mumble at me oh that's right i haven't spouted off your name and social security number and address yet i'm just gonna come over my place uh what are you there i'm running to a luncheon at 11 30 and i'll be back where are you going to lunch is it mexican food yeah all right get me a i'll do chicken fajitas and i'll and i'll meet you at uh whenever you're back you really want me to bring your chicken vegas yeah i'll bring him i don't care hey double that order double that order marco wants some too i know he met that yeah he's gonna he'll come say hi today it's kind of like these guys always said he had his girlfriends i just like their mic well most of them are that'd be weird to make up a business partner yeah it'd be weird to make up a business partner i can understand making up a girlfriend no it's funny when i piss somebody off oh what what happens now dealers won't even call me anymore like i'll post something for sell and they call marco they're like i don't want to deal with anthony he's major department all right so i'm bringing you a pepsi jubilee and then i need to bring tools to change to size a few watches right yeah i need you to that uh root beer that i have make it as big as it can go see if it's gonna fit my wrist those

jewelers you know if you guys you know sell it to your usually they do yeah could i get a price for a watch right now sure yeah which one uh which watch i had a client call me about a cartier santos blue stainless steel the newer one that they just came out with last year i'm thinking like the popular one yeah i've got it's the x the xl uh blue roman i have one right now for 8 100. okay okay and are they going over retail or under or at the same time that one is over retail so i think retail on that piece is seven maybe it's like 68 something i could be wrong it trades over retail this that one i mean well actually all the santos right now are trading over retail how do i send you guys my information like to do the books and stuff i'll forward your information over to my uh operations director and he'll he'll get all the information he needs from you okay perfect perfect all right uh i appreciate that um okay well a lot of the times though when there's someone trying to scam there's other red flags that you could have picked up on that would have let you know hey you're about to get scammed so but this one could be real or this is i mean it's real or not we'll know in a few days awesome learning experience oh yeah all right you ready marco we gotta go we're just going to eat quesadillas we don't need luck yeah fajitas whatever i don't know it's mexican well i wanted

see how long i don't want to say it wrong 72 okay so three day power reserve as long as they're wound up completely and you keep wearing them that power reserve never stops when you stop and you like set it down that the power reserve kicks in okay so you could what i would do is get a watch winder okay get on amazon and buy a cheap watch winder yeah and every time you take it off put it on that watch winder it keeps it spinning so it keeps it wound otherwise yes whenever you notice it's off you have to unscrew the crown and this part and wind it all the way up the watch is waterproof you can wash your hands with it you can swim in them really one thing yeah one thing the one thing i would do is when you go to wash your hands just train yourself to touch the crown what will happen is you'll be setting it one day and you'll be rushed and you'll forget it happens every everyone does it yeah you'll forget to screw it all the way down yeah if you teach if you train yourself to just touch that crown when you go to wash your hands you'll you'll know it remember yeah because one day you'll go to do that and you'll be like oh they have like a triple a triple gasket in there okay so if you do happen to leave it unscrewed and you wash your hands your watch isn't going to be ruined um if you ever notice any condensation or anything under it have brandon call us well thank you guys

these crazy paddocks and aps but anyway what's the turnaround time for all these time on this is within two weeks okay and then you and i are both going to sign them i'm going to write a little note on the back if they want to personalize it we'll personalize it so i'm excited about this so finally uh i met you so guys i've met stephen about three months ago at a car show and he was an automotive artist and i walked up to him i asked him if he could do watches and he said sure send me some pictures i sent him the three pictures of the watches you guys see in my office and two months later i had these massive paintings that were bad and then i started posting them on instagram and some of my youtube videos you guys reach out and you keep asking me where to get them so him and i came up with an idea we've started a collaboration it's going to be the sellzler fairer collaboration i'm going to link the website below the instagram but these paintings now any watch you want this guy can create it we're going to get all the info i'm going to post it below but would you you said a two-month two-week turnaround about two weeks yeah if you want to watch send us your pictures get in touch with him he will send you a like what a you did you sent me a digital design yeah i do all of my prototyping digitally okay you get a good example of what it's going to look like so you're not like uh what's this going to look like i don't really know until you get it yeah i don't do it that way okay so figure out which watch is special to you send us a picture via his website that again i'll link below he'll send you a mock-up you say yes in two weeks you have the uh custom painting and these are bad so we're gonna do another video this is part of our day in the live series but we're gonna do a separate video behind the real making and show you exactly what goes into making one of these pieces and we're going to do that in a separate video but guys i wanted to introduce you to steven we're going to roll out some custom one of one pieces that i come up with and he creates so stay tuned for those welcome back watch people and today i'm absolutely delighted to introduce you a watch tuber that i actually take the time to watch myself and for a very good reason and that's because anthony farah also known as the timepiece gentleman is quite a rare commodity in the youtube world in the fact that he's an active watch dealer as well as a very busy active watch youtuber anthony welcome to the channel thank you paul and i i'm also a fan of yours man i've been watching your videos for well over six to eight months and uh it was a goal before i started my channel to be on this channel one time with you so i do very much appreciate you having me on what what's it like finding stock out there because you're you're selling quality watches it's just not running them all stuff these are high end pieces how are you finding it getting stock so i have i've been asked this question before by some other dealers is how do they find inventory and it's guys wanting to get in the business and get started and for me it's a little bit different of a story because i didn't go the traditional route of having to wholesale dealer to dealer and uh come up come up in the wholesale business i guess actually it's been absolutely brilliant having you on tonight i hope this is not the last time it's been a pleasure to be on here so it's definitely not going to be the last it's the first of many i hope as well done i'm doing a video showing the it's not the most glamorous photo of me but so the panerai's i've got to do a panerai fan so like i had a rolex and cardi i had three watches i sold all of them now i'm kind of just getting back in the game cool thing about panerai it is the best watch you can put on any strap it doesn't matter if it's cloth skin bracelet leather do you guys mind telling me why the green goes for more than the others most of the time it's just high high yeah popularity yeah the golfers are wearing it i'm seeing that this one is eight thousand and this is ten five that's a 20 20. okay and why exactly just because of the dials uh it's it's it's a bunch of different things it's the complications now dials play a part when it comes to color so you can have two identical watches and the color of the dial will make one worth more like well for example that sub yeah the hulk is the same as a date submariner these are the exact same watch that one's just green this one sells for 12 000 this one sells for 20 000. so like look at paddock paddock 5711 blue sells for over 100 grand right now it is a basic date it's got a date complication that's it and it tells time 100 grand for a stainless steel do you like it 4 800 for that you could beat the hell out of that you can change it a ton of different styles that would be a good value for what it sounds like you want change the strap on it you have five different watches in one it really does change the watch so much it's amazing if you know of a watch you want get on some of the websites and look and see and if you find a watch you want screenshot it and that's got marco's number on it send him a picture of it okay i'll do that then cool that wasn't that serious about it all right man nice to meet you hey i watched i was watching this uh this morning i opened my phone and you popped up unwrapping that oh yeah did you watch that it was cool right yeah y'all kept that guy he got pissed all right we need what is this we need to go over who we owe money to so we can get all these watches paid for okay okay is 36 000 do what you have a visitor oh hey ah that's a subpoena okay all right thank you cool that is not what that's for oh it's a subpoena to testify at a deposition at the position for one look at the name of the top no no no i'm not getting sued that's good so this guy was buying this guy another one it's not ppp money but this guy was basically buying using using company money to buy watches and then he uh declared bankruptcy he's filing bankruptcy and anthony subpoenas write that one on the board he got one subpoena today okay get back to this so 36. okay next it's 48 000. uh we owe i got to send ten thousand wire today it's just uh how much do we owe you and sam h how much exactly yes like who 134.98 what okay so who else okay don't buy any more watches yet we got to stop buying watches because that's where it's getting buried yeah dude i'm gonna sell my watch collection let's do that okay it's crazy because i just did literally just filmed it this morning my watch collection video well we may not have to we got money coming in too yeah but dude i'm sitting on a ton of cash in that collection plus this investor we got another offer from an investor and it's just what's that that's stupid i'm gonna pull my entire collection out uh dylan will you grab all of these what can i get for it yeah i want to do it i'll sell everything hey hey i'm headed over you are okay i decided i'm going to sell everything in the collection so i know you wanted the green daytona so my price is 60 on it okay i'll come i'll come by okay and also do you remember what we owed you for the two-tone daytona i have it written down i'll just i'm headed over to you at like 1 105 so i'll be ready not the silver dylan that's not worth anything keep that what's silver worth right now i have no idea actually what is silver worth an ounce yeah we're not i'm not that's not going to change the state of our what can we get for this well i got an offer right now 50. no calling and 153 and i'll take it what about this what about that um s serial 94. yeah what about prez that would rain this one i'm going to take a loss on but whatever i can utilize the money you can sell that for like 38 38 39. maybe i really need it if it's in like really good shape it's a 20 20. hey i'll sell my daytona my daytona 52 000. it's a 20 20 20 complete new card but i need a wire yeah you're gonna have to transfer some money over there he probably can he buys his rolexes from you so yeah all right let me let me do give me five hours all right how long a few hours okay all right all right bye hopefully it didn't break they literally threw it over the sand they did a good job packing it oh my god could you imagine you like break this on the way out hey guys i'm here with taylor at auto connect and i just want to give a huge shout out to taylor for helping me out with the r8 as you guys know it was damaged from a coke bottle that went through the back end so we've got the new piece right behind you so we're going to put that on and hopefully get this car out of here so thank you again taylor no problem it's going to be an exciting next hour to get this all together i'm kind of excited to do it because i'm kind of a gearhead when it comes to stuff like this so it's gonna be pretty cool so let's get started they cut the harness on the new part which was advertised as uncut so now we have to you know salvage what we can off this i don't know let me try it see let's see will it go through looks like it's broken right there oh no never mind that's just okay well it's just broke man throw the whole car away okay that's good that it didn't slide off in there it almost did you have a uh i can't get past the lip with the lawn you have a driver yeah he doesn't even try a driver but you don't have the i don't think you have one that fits this that's i need one of these this is this okay this this curves up right so you can't go straight let's see what you're saying right i'll let you test it just in case hopefully there's no glass that's good yeah that's it i mean without pulling the whole motor out you know i got pull the motor out which you can get guys the car is done we got it all fixed up huge thank you to taylor again i can't i can't thank you enough for all your help no worries really appreciate everything you've done um if you want to find taylor he owns auto connect here in royce city he does a lot of great work so if you need anything done or you're looking for a vehicle he's go see this guy all right guys so it is the end of week four and i want to go over the numbers real quick and then i've got a couple more things to talk about but first off every week we set a sales goal monday through friday to reach a certain number that's going to keep us on track that sells gold number is 273 437 dollars and 50 cents in cells per week to stay on track this week we ended the week with 434 550 in sales which is 63 above our goal so still well on track now this week we did 18 watches two of those went to wholesale dealers the other 16 went to retail customers so still a strong retail buying presence out there that we're seeing according to my goals for uh what we need to make a month to stay on track we should end the month with a million 93 750 dollars in sales this month we're ending with one million six hundred and thirteen thousand five hundred and twenty dollars in sales so we are 68 percent above our goal for the year so it's a good start to it now i will say this time last year january this month was our record month in sales in business it was the same case for january in 2020 we had a record number there where we did 1.1 million i believe and that was the first time we broke a million in sales so like i mentioned in the last video february march they tend to sales tend to slow off a little bit because you're up you're coming into tax season so then what i think we'll see is less retail sales and more wholesale deals and we'll also be doing a lot more buying now as far as models that i'm seeing it's still the same popular pieces all stainless sport models are still going out you all know that it's no surprise but what i'm seeing a lot from the aeds is a lot of datejust every day i'm getting calls for four five six seven different datejust a lot of subs still i will say that the hype from say four to five months ago six months ago when datejust were trading well over retail as where you could buy them pay the tax on them sell them to someone like me and still make money and i still make money i think those days are gone datejust are popping up left and right you can walk into the retailers and see them in you're starting to see a lot of two two-tone daytonas get offered out so those are slowly starting to die down a little bit i will say this keep in mind in this day and age everyone is out there looking for that new starter piece to build a relationship with odds are if it's sitting in the case in a rolex dealer you're not going to make money on it so again like i mentioned in the last video trying to force your hand to buy something to start that relationship and not lose money is not practical you're gonna lose some money on that now that that's out of the way in the last video we announced a contest where anyone who went online and shared this video and then came back and reported to us that you did we were going to pick at random a winner fly you out here first class and let you spend the day with marco and i and dylan and the team being a watch dealer and then we're going to take you out to dinner so i you guys know that i read every single one of my comments i respond to as many of them as i can right now on this video i'm looking at it we are sitting at 1085 comments that is a lot in five days so also impressive 77 000 views on a 50 minute video that is that's netflix tv series um but i read through all these comments and one of them stuck out to me more than anything so i decided that i was going to personally pick a winner based on that comment and the comment was from mike johansen and it was been following you on insta for years i was stoked to see you start youtube i don't watch any youtube video longer than 25 minutes but i gladly set aside 50 minutes for this i'll share the link

this youtube presence which is a day in the life to get you guys to follow along with us through 2021 throughout our business and i see this guy mike that has already been following for for a while i
